Rethinking Capitalist Development by Kalyan Sanyal

Rethinking Capitalist Development by Kalyan Sanyal

In this book, Kalyan Sanyal reviews the traditional notion of capitalism and propounds an original theory of capitalist development in the post-colonial context. In order to substantiate his theory, concepts such as primitive accumulation, governmentality and post-colonial capitalist formation are discussed in detail. Analyzing critical questions from a third world perspective such as: Will the integration into the global capitalist network bring to the third world new economic opportunities? Will this capitalist network make the third world countries an easy prey for predatory multinational corporations? The end result is a discourse, drawing on Marx and Foucault, which envisages the post-colonial capitalist formation, albeit in an entirely different light, in the era of globalization.

"Kalyan Sanyal’s book, Rethinking Capitalist Development: Primitive Accumulation, Governmentality and Post-colonial Capitalism, constitutes an important addition to the debate on primitiveaccumulation and post-colonial Indian development"
